Why do we love Alex and Isabel so much?
At a glance they seem to be the usual match up of a somewhat nerdy but nice guy with the most sought after and popular girl in school,as shown on countless other shows and movies.
But...on Roswell they finally got it right!
Instead of showing a guy who only wanted to be with the school Goddess cause she is hot,and the girl who all of a 'sudden' realises that nerdy/geeky guys are who she should of been going for intsead of the 'jock/cool' type guys,we were shown a nice average guy who during years of admiring the girl of his dreams has come to realise that there is more her to than what she shows the world around her,and an outwardly cold and somewhat 'above everyone' girl who has been keeping her true self hidden from even those closest to her,and would like to have someone who not only could see the who she really is and love her for it.
If not for Isabel being part alien,with powers as well,one being the power to dreamwalk,these 2 people who are so right for each other may not have had the chance to see the other persons real feelings.But while dreamwalking Alex to see if he is going to reveal her biggest and life threatening secret,she instead finds someone who not only accepts her being 'not of this Earth',but also loves the real person who she is on the inside.This is something Isabel never thought she would have,and although still cautious and afraid of this,decides to see if Alex can really give her everything she ever wanted |
